Amorphous aluminosilicates have been found at the core of senile plaques in Alzheimer's disease, and aluminum has been detected in neurons bearing neurofibrillary tangles -- both in Alzheimer's disease and in the Parkinson's disease with dementia that is prevalent on Guam and other Pacific areas.'

'Further controversy ensued with the demonstration of aluminum toxicity in dialysis dementia and reports of NFT-bearing hippocampal neurons in the amyotrophic lateral sclerosis-Parkinsonism complex (ALS/PD) of the Pacific basin rim.'

Even with such sophisticated equipment, Jacob's et al's study is questioned due to Washington State as having the highest Alzheimer's percentage (43%) of all U.S. states. This is also the state for mad cow prions at Mabton.
